Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3052 Red thing?Funeral?
Everyone stopped discussing after hearing the words, Li Ji bowed and said: "Your Majesty clearly understands that this battle has a lot to do with it. We must discuss a strategy without any loopholes. It cannot be calculated in a short time."

His Majesty Li Er nodded.

As Goguryeo's first important town in Liaodong, Anshicheng has gathered heavy troops, which can almost be regarded as Goguryeo's last rule in Liaodong.Once Anshi City is captured, Goguryeo's power in Liaodong will be uprooted, and the army will move south and cross the Yalu River to reach the city of Pingrang.

At that time, even if the city of Ping Rang is impenetrable, if the Tang army only needs to besiege and not attack, Goguryeo will undoubtedly be defeated.

Therefore, the Battle of Anshi City is the node of the entire Eastern Expedition, and no mistakes are allowed, and it is not too much to be cautious.Furthermore, the main force of the Tang army with 40 soldiers attacked Jian'an City. After the victory, they needed to get supplies from the navy on the spot. Now they have only brought more than [-] soldiers, and two-thirds are still receiving supplies.Right now, it may be possible to carry out small-scale raids to disrupt the morale of the Anshi City defenders and cut off their support and supplies, but launching a general attack must wait until the rest of the army arrives.

The 60-strong army has been fighting hard for many years, so it is natural that they will do their best to strike, not giving the defenders of Anshi City a chance.

In this battle, it is better to be slow, and absolutely not to make mistakes.

"My dear friends are all people who have been in battle for a long time, and you should also understand the principle of steady and steady fighting. Naturally, the general attack can wait for all the troops to arrive, and launch a thunderous blow to defeat the defenders of Anshi City in one fell swoop. However, at this time, we must stop To cut off the enemy's way to the north, we must not allow them to support Anshi City in terms of soldiers, food supplies, and supplies, otherwise their morale will definitely be boosted."

Anshi City is now an isolated city, surrounded by the Tang army on the east, north, and west sides, leaving only one passage in the direction of Daquegu in the south.Right now, the purpose of fighting steadily is to besiege Anshi City, and complete all their achievements in one battle, so as to avoid a fierce battle. Once the defenders of Anshi City can receive continuous support from Ping Rang City, the trapped beast will continue to fight, which will greatly disadvantage the Tang army's strategy of rapid advancement.

Li Ji looked at the sand table and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty can order Cheng Mingzhen's troops to guard Daque Valley and cut off the way for the enemy to come to help."

Cheng Mingzhen immediately stood up and said loudly: "The last general is willing to lead the army order! We must stick to Daquegu and prevent the enemy from breaking through the defense to support Anshi City. If you fail to complete the order, you are willing to be punished!"

Zhou Daowu on the side looked gloomy, hesitant to speak.

The battlefield is like a court, and the struggle between factions never stops.In the entire battle of Anshi City, it was foreseeable that hundreds of thousands of troops would besiege and attack the city. The enemy city was precarious, and the victory was already decided. Even the first person to break through the city might not have much military merit.

Leading an army alone to defend Daque Valley, which not only blocked the support route of Ping Rang City, but also cut off the way for the defenders of Anshi City to escape, can be regarded as the greatest contribution.

Now the army is full of generals of the prince's line, and Li Ji has clearly expressed his support for the prince. It is naturally reasonable to give such a credit to Cheng Mingzhen, a general of the prince's line.

Even if I want to fight, I'm afraid I can't fight...

Zhou Daowu raised his eyes to look at the eldest grandson Wuji who was standing with his hands tied and silent, and he couldn't help feeling a strong sense of crisis in his heart.

But looking at the situation in the army, the prince's family has already formed a faction, why should King Jin fight?
Without the support of the army, it has never been heard that they can come from behind and succeed in the battle for reserves...

His Majesty Li Er also took a look at Changsun Wuji, wondering what he was thinking, and after pondering for a while, he nodded and said: "So, the task of blocking the attack on the Sparrow Valley is entrusted to General Cheng, and I hope the general will act cautiously. Affect the overall situation of the Eastern Expedition."

Cheng Mingzhen bowed and said: "The last general obeys the order! Your Majesty trusts the last general to repay it with death. As long as this body is still alive, even a soldier of the barbarians will not be able to go out to fight the sparrow valley!"

His Majesty Li Er laughed and said: "You are the general, who sits in the middle army and commands the army. How can you talk about dying? If you are also killed in the army, wouldn't it be a big joke for me to go to the army personally? No matter how stubborn the enemy is, the heavenly soldiers will come. , must be invincible and invincible!"

All the generals suddenly became emotional and shouted: "Wherever the heavenly soldiers arrive, they will be invincible!"

The soldiers walking back and forth outside the tent suddenly heard the shouts coming from the tent of the Chinese army, and they all burst into excitement like chicken blood.His majesty and all the generals are so morale, it means that the victory of this war is not far away.

Countless soldiers began to raise their arms and cheered: "Wherever the heavenly soldiers arrive, they will be invincible!"

Gradually, the entire barracks were shouting in agreement.

"Where the heavenly soldiers go, they are invincible!"

"Invincible!"

Domineering shouts soared to the sky, shaking the surrounding fields.

*****
The night fell, covering the wilderness.

The soldiers carried the lanterns, and Changsun Wuji followed behind with his hands behind his back, returning to his tent.

The guards in the tent had already prepared warm water, washed his hands and face for him, and brought some hearty dishes, which were placed on the table in the middle of the tent.

After traveling for several days, he finally arrived in Anshi City. In the rare tranquility before the war, the leader Sun Wuji's exhausted body and mind were relieved. He let out his breath, sat at the table, picked up chopsticks and prepared to eat.

Suddenly a soldier from outside came in and reported: "Patriarch, there is a messenger from my family who came from Chang'an and said that it was delivered by Shiro's letterhead."

"Oh?"

Changsun Wuji's heart skipped a beat, he quickly put down his chopsticks, and said, "Call in quickly!"

"Here!"

Seeing the guard turn around and go out, Changsun Wuji picked up the teacup on the side, reached a cup of warm tea, and drank most of the cup in one go.

Changsun Jun's mission has been completed, but he was blackmailed, which made him extremely worried.After Changsun Dan and Changsun Huan died one after another, and Changsun Chong went into exile, Changsun Jun was the actual eldest son of the Changsun family and was destined to inherit the position of Patriarch.

And the eldest grandson Wuji also had high hopes for his son, so even if it was such a huge sum of 3000 taels of gold, he would rather sell some of his ancestral property to make up for it, only hoping to redeem his son.

Not to mention that once the grandson Jun has an accident, it means that he has to "raise the big man" among those useless sons, and hand over the family's future to those stupid people. , it is already unbearable.

Losing a child in old age is the most tragic thing in the world, and he has tasted this painful taste twice, how can he be willing to taste it here?
Fortunately, although Chang Sunyan lacks talent, he has an honest personality, has always been safe in his work, has enough gold, and can use his family relationship to seek support from the Anxi Army at any time. He doesn't think there will be any accidents in this matter.

The reason why I have been worried is more because of Damascus, lest something else happen.

So far, the key to breaking the situation is all in Damascus...

Not long after, outside the tent, a servant who was full of travel and dust stepped into the big tent, saw the eldest grandson Wuji sitting in the tent, stepped forward two steps, knelt down with a "plop", and cried loudly: "Patriarch, Sanlang is gone! "

Hearing this, Changsun Wuji, who had always been deep in the city, felt his eyes darken, and almost fell to the ground...

Taking a deep breath, encouraging him to maintain his composure, he hoarsely asked, "What nonsense are you talking about? What's going on?"

The servant hurriedly escaped from his arms the letter written by Changsun Yan to Changsun Wuji, and offered it with both hands.

Changsun Wuji's expression was extremely embarrassing, he reached out to take it, and used the knife on the table to pry off the sealing wax, but his hands were trembling, and he couldn't pry it open...

Seeing this, the soldiers at the side hurried forward to take the letterhead and knife, pried open the seal, took out the letterhead, and handed it to Changsun Wuji.

Holding the letterhead, Changsun Wuji glanced at ten lines, only to see that the letter said that Changsun Jun had been "torn up" by the big cannibal, and he himself asked the soldiers from Guanzhong in the army to lead troops to rescue him, but when he could only rescue Changsun Jun's body, he suddenly panicked. With a cry, a mouthful of blood spurted out.

"Homeowner!"

The guards around him were all shocked, and rushed up to support his crumbling body.

Changsun Wuji was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood, but he became more sober. Seeing a soldier who was about to rush out of the tent to find the imperial physician who accompanied the army to treat him, he stopped quickly: "Everyone come back!"

Changsun Jun died in the Western Regions, and even more so at the hands of a big cannibal. Once the news spread, how would he explain it?Especially once the Arab army invades the Western Regions in the near future, someone with a heart will definitely connect the two things, and it is impossible for the eldest grandson's family to get rid of it.

"The old man is fine, everything is stable!"

However, before he continued to read the letter, another soldier came in from outside and reported: "Da Lang sent someone to send a letter..."

When someone came into the big tent and handed Changsun Chong's letter to Changsun Wuji for a review, Changsun Wuji's heart was about to split in two...

This rebellious son actually wants to join the Zhuyuan clan?
The son of the dignified grandson's family, even if he is in exile, he is still a handsome young man in troubled times, why is he reduced to become someone else's son-in-law?

It's simply unfilial!
